House Cleaning Tips
House cleaning is not at the top of most peoples list of fine things to do, and if you let your mind wander too much, you'll spend even more time cleaning. Focus on what you're doing, make every move count, and you'll finish more quickly. Clean top to bottom, back to front, right to left and work your way around the room, cleaning as you go, just one area at a time. Carry your cleaning supplies with you in a basket or cleaning bucket so you don't waste time having to go back to retrieve them.
Dust First, Vacuum Last. Start dusting from the top of the highest shelves, the tops of cabinets. These tend to be less dusty than lower shelves. Even if you dust quickly, you'll be moving the dust down to a lower level, usually the floor, where it is easily vacuumed away.
Yes, house cleaning is a chore, but this checklist should help you get the chores done quickly so you can spend your free time doing the things you enjoy.
